What i heard from people is, whoever is using the higher wattage bulbs like 100/90 or 130/90 without ceramic holders switch off the lights when the vehicle is idle.

The logic as per them is, when the vehicle is running the air flow is enough to dissipate the heat created by these bulbs. So they need to switch it off in idle.
